Description
Would you like to take a gap year and explore different countries while you're working and learning a different culture and language?
We live in a beautiful village of province of Lleida, surrounded by fruit fields and olives trees. The village has all the services, and has a bus stop and train station. It’s very easy to get from Barcelona.
We love travel and meet new people from other contries and cultures. The village is just 1 hour and half from Barcelona and Pyreness , 1 hour from the beach and 20 min from the city of Lleida.
Our family consist of us - my parents (both mid 60’s), my brothers (28 and 36yrs.) and me (31), moreover we spent much time with my little girl cousin (10) and her parents (both mid 40’s).
In addition, if you come in summer we have a countryside house, where we can relax at he garden, take a bath in the swimming pool or make a route by bike ( we can let you a bike).
We are looking for a volunteer to practice english language.
On the other hand, I’m running an English school in the same village and I would like that my students would have the chance to play and learn english with an English speaker. Someone enthusiastic and who loves young children. We are a small english school so the atmosphere is very familiar, the groups are small.
Is a plus if you are a native english speaker (USA, CA, UK, AU,..)

Lleida is nearby - an ancient city in Spain's northeastern Catalonia region. La Seu Vella, a Gothic-Romanesque cathedral in a ruined hilltop fortress, towers over the city. Below the hill stretches the long, pedestrianized Eix Comercial de Lleida, with shops set inside many of the old town's striking buildings. On a hill to the west, the 12th-century Castle of Gardeny complex explores the region's Templar history.
